Conformal field theory finds applications across diverse fields, from statistical systems at criticality to quantum gravity through the AdS/CFT correspondence. These theories are subject to strong constraints, enabling a systematic…
Logarithmic conformal field theories have a vast range of applications, from critical percolation to systems with quenched disorder. In this paper we thoroughly examine the structure of these theories based on their symmetry properties. Our…
We present new examples of maverick coset conformal field theories. They are closely related to conformal embeddings and exceptional modular invariants.
In these notes I briefly outline SL(2) degenerate conformal field theories and their application to some related models, namely 2d gravity and N=2 discrete superconformal series.
Analysis of signals defined on complex topologies modeled by graphs is a topic of increasing interest. Signal decomposition plays a crucial role in the representation and processing of such information, in particular, to process graph…
We study the occurrence of global gauge anomalies in the coset models of two-dimensional conformal field theory that are based on gauged WZW models. A complete classification of the non-anomalous theories for a wide family of gauged rigid…
This paper is devoted to study of integrable structures in superconformal field theory and more general coset CFT's related to the affine Yangian $\textrm{Y}\big(\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}(2)\big)$. We derive the relation between the RLL and…
We construct and fully characterize a scalar boundary conformal field theory on a triangulated Riemann surface. The results are analyzed from a string theory perspective as tools to deal with open/closed string dualities.
Conformal field theories based on $g/u(1)^d$ coset constructions where $g$ is a reductive algebra are studied.It is shown that the theories are equivalent to constrained WZNW models for $g.$ Generators of extended symmetry algebras and…
We introduce a discrete, graph theoretic approach to conformal field theory correlators. In a certain basis, called the squid basis, the correlator of N scalar operators can be expressed as the determinant of a natural, conformally…
We list the spectrum generating algebras for string theory and M-theory compactified on various backgrounds of the form $AdS_{d+1} \times S^n$. We identify the representations of these algebras which make up the classical supergravity…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a Conformal Field Theory to have a description in terms of a perturbative Effective Field Theory in AdS. The first two conditions are well-known: the existence of a perturbative `1/N'…
The most basic structure of chiral conformal field theory (CFT) is the Verlinde ring. Freed-Hopkins-Teleman have expressed the Verlinde ring for the CFT's associated to loop groups, as twisted equivariant K-theory. We build on their work to…
In this paper we discuss off-shell representations of N-extended supersymmetry in one dimension, ie, N-extended supersymmetric quantum mechanics, and following earlier work on the subject codify them in terms of certain graphs, called…
We start with a given modular invariant M of a two dimensional su(n)_k conformal field theory (CFT) and present a general method for solving the Ocneanu modular splitting equation and then determine, in a step-by-step explicit construction,…
We study the connection between *-representations of algebras associated with graphs, locally-scalar graph representations and the problem about the spectrum of a sum of two Hermitian operators. For algebras associated with Dynkin graphs we…

We develop a method of singularity analysis for conformal graphs which, in particular, is applicable to the holographic image of AdS supergravity theory. It can be used to determine the critical exponents for any such graph in a given…
A folklore conjecture states that the Nahm sum associated with a pair of Dynkin diagrams of type $ADET$ is a modular function. In this paper, we extend this conjecture to Dynkin diagrams of type $ABCDEFGT$ in the context of generalized Nahm…
We show that graphs, networks and other related discrete model systems carry a natural supersymmetric structure, which, apart from its conceptual importance as to possible physical applications, allows to derive a series of spectral…
